Now, if you had a grove of fruit trees that needed pruning, would you drastically prune them all at once? Or would you do a number of trees per year?

It depends on the orchard. The California grove was pruned all at once. You don't know if the Palestinian orchard was all drastically pruned at once because the entire orchard is not shown in any of the pictures.

Perhaps that woman, possibly a Christian, saw that tree as her income? Maybe it was to help feed her family? Do you think that could be the reason she could be so distraut?

She is wearing a Muslim headscarf. The tree is not destroyed and will produce fruit for many more years. She is crying and tree-hugging for a staged photo op.

Nobody has the right to prune someone elses trees.

NOBODY FREAKING DID!

Are you implying that the news media would use photography to create a staged news event? I'm shocked.
